Kuala Lumpur, Sept 14 (ANI): A 107-year-old woman is looking for a groom to marry for the 23rd time because she fears her present hubby will leave her after coming out of rehab.

Centenarian Mek Wok Kundor married the 37-year-old Mohd Noor Che Musa in 2005, but ever since he joined rehab in July she fears their marriage will break down after he’s cured of drugs.

The woman, who is called Tok Wook, fondly confessed her insecurity and said she was looking for a new hubby to fill her ‘forlornness and nothing more than that’.

Tok Wook lives in Kampung Bukit TokBat and plans to visit Mohd Noor on the second day of Hari Raya if someone drives her to Kuala Lumpur.

The Star Online quoted her as saying: “I want to express my feelings and tell him that I am lonely without him and if he reciprocates, I will wait for him without thinking of another marriage.”

She added: “I am not searching for a man as handsome as our Prime Minister (Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak), but someone to accompany me in my twilight years.

“I realise that I am an aged woman. I don’t have the body nor am I a young woman who can attract anyone.

“My intention to remarry is to fill my forlornness and nothing more than that.” (ANI)

“Risky” movie Camino scoops Spain’s Goya film awards

February 3, 2009 By Dinesh Leave a Comment

Madrid – The Spanish Cinema Academy was Monday seen as having made a bold choice in granting six Goya Awards to Javier Fesser’s film Camino (The Road), which depicts the influential conservative Catholic organization Opus Dei in a critical light.

Spain’s top movie awards, which were granted for the 23th time, were announced at a Madrid gala overnight.

Camino was “the riskiest and politically most uncomfortable” candidate, the daily El Mundo said, while El Pais described the movie as a “different” film on “spirituality, (and) on how Opus Dei manipulates the illness of a child.”

Camino took awards including best film, director, original screenplay, lead actress for Carme Elias as the terminally ill girl’s mother, and new actress for Nerea Camacho as the girl.

Based on a true story, the film shows how the girl’s mother, a militant of Opus Dei, tries to persuade her that her illness is a divine blessing, and the subsequent attempts to canonize her.

Other Goya awards included best actor for Puerto Rican-born Benicio Del Toro for his role as Argentine revolutionary Ernesto Che Guevara in US director Steven Soderbergh’s Spanish-language epic Che, el Argentino (Che the Argentinian).

The film is set in Cuba, where Guevara helped Fidel Castro overthrow Fulgencio Batista’s dictatorship.

Penelope Cruz took the Goya for best supporting actress for Woody Allen’s Vicky Cristina Barcelona, which has also earned her an Oscar nomination. (dpa)

Benicio Del Toro likens Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara to Batman

January 15, 2009 By Rajesh Leave a Comment

Washington, Jan 15 (ANI): Hollywood actor Benicio Del Toro has likened revolutionary leader Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara to Batman.

The ‘The Argentine’ actor, who has played the role of Guevara in director Steven Soderbergh’s four-hour epic, silenced critics of the leader by saying that the revolutionary was actually “a warrior” with a very bad reputation.

“I remember Che being included in a TV show that showed pictures of terrorists. I was like, ‘Why isn’t (President Richard) Nixon there for the Vietnam war?’ You’d have to put a lot of pictures of other people there before you’d put Che’s,” Contactmusic quoted Benicio, as telling Latina magazine.

“We tell stories about Batman, and he was a type of Batman. No one can deny that he was trying to stop man exploiting man. Whether he was successful or not…,” Benicio added.

Benicio revealed that Guevara was actually a saintly human at heart and he was a principled man.

“Two people who I met learned how to read and write because of him. It was really moving… The most revealing thing was that he (Guevara) was a human being,” Benicio added. (ANI)
